Tasting Notes ZYR starts with clean, naturally filtered water, drawn from 140 meters deep below Russia's heartland. The water is then filtered five times, including ultra-violet and membrane filters, in preparation for its marriage to the fermented blend of grains. After the five distillations, ZYR is filtered four more times using carefully selected birch tree charcoal granules to remove any remaining impurities and round out the taste.

Technical Notes The fermented blend of Russian winter wheat and rye is distilled five times. These stages ensure maximum clarity and purity in the product and in the incredibly clean taste. After these steps, ZYR is married to additional crystal-clear water, bringing the resulting spirit to 80-roof or 40% alcohol by volume. The procedures used for ZYR are based on the work of Dmitry Mendeleev, Russia's famous son of science and creator of the Periodic Table of Elements.

Additional Notes Finally, there are three tastings performed at specific stages prior to the final bottling process. These inspections ensure that every drop of ZYR is the perfect vodka in taste, texture, weight and shine.
